The stories are mostly written using exposition with small portions of dialogue scattered throughout, serving as an effective means of sharing her message of women's equality. The writing style is enhanced by the verbiage chosen as it maintains the focus on the tone and theme of the collection. Overall, the language used is easy to understanding and very effective in emphasizing the author's purpose for creating her fiction.
